Sprint Store Screen Protector Quality

I really hate applying screen protectors and I always seem to mess it up. I know Sprint will apply it if you buy it from them. ANyone have experience with their protectors?

Yeah, the only ones that had at sprint when I bought mine turned out to be the square type that JUST cover the active screen portion. This significantly reduces the effectiveness of the S-Pen. (It catches on the side, making it rather hard to write or do anything closeto the edges of the screen for me.)
I recommend one of the better designed ones that covers more of the bezels so that your spen doesnt get caught up around the sides.

For what it's worth, I got the Sprint protectors and they are good but only cover the actual screen.
If you want to apply your own, turn the shower on the hottest setting for 10 minutes and then turn it off. Apply the screen protector in your bathroom now. The steam pulls the dust out of the air and allows you to get a perfect placement

Thanks guys, I'll just take it to the Ghost Armor kiosk in the mall...they'll do it for me.

I'm running that one for now until zagg makes hd for it. It is not that bad in my opinion, it's smooth and clear. But it only covers screen and gets really bad micro scratches but those aren't noticeable with the screen on. Also the aforementioned possibility of the pen catching it when near the edges. Pen runs smooth across it though. Comes with 2 clear and a matte one.

Best Buy already has the HD Zagg, I think it was $25, not 100% positive on that, may be $20. Saw it in there store in the mall a few days ago but didn't have the funds on me to grab it, planning to go back.

Really? Sweet I'll have to check it out Went in last week when i got this and asked if they have any cases/screen protectors for it and they said hell no we don't even have the phone yet lol. They just had the Samsung guy in demoing the phone that day

Forget the Zagg's they are garbage took mine back next day for my money back. They didn't keep in mind that this phone has an s-pen and i leaves lines and anything you draw indented in the shield and they dont come out. Get the spigen oleophobic ones from amazon, they are a 2 pack for 15.99.

I got some Sprint store ones to get me by until my Spigen ones get here, they are not very impressive. I have no performance issues, but it has been like 4 days and it covered with scratches, it actually scratched when I was putting it on and getting the air bubbles out.

I'm looking at these myself...have a question for you. Do you know if these have an actual matte finish or are they smooth/clear? I can't decide whether to go with these or the Ultra Crystal from them or the Ultra Oleophobic. I'd rather a smooth, clear, unnoticeable finish rather than a matte finish.

They are supposed to be crystal clear. I hate the matte finish because it just defeats the purpose of having a high definition phone.

My thoughts exactly. Just not sure why anyone would go with the Crystal instead of the Oleophobic if they're both clear but one is oil resistant.

Looking for results on screen protectors with spen usage

I have read through the other screen protector thread and I feel like it's just a mess to read through because it's people either simply stating what they ordered or SSHguru from just like glass suggesting his product or talking back and forth with people about the orders. Just like glass is definitely one of the protectors I am considering as well as possibly looking at the SPIGEN SGP protectors.
I have not used a screen protector on a phone in a few years but due to the screen being so big and not being able to get insurance on the phone this time I feel a screen protector is wise. I just want to make sure it will not hinder the use of the spen. I am no artist and can barely draw a stick figure or even write with a pen for that matter, I just have horrible handwriting. So as long it still functions correctly I am happy with it.
I am thinking of adding a pole to this with the ones most recommended.

I am using Just like glass, I also have horrible handwriting and cant drew worth crap! (even my stick figures are bad!) It is a great product!! and SSHguru (AKA Scott) Is great as far as responding to emails and posts / concerns. That being said the protector I relived is a little short (Files where too big to upload!) and it sounds like he had an issue with the manufacturer. So I would wait until that gets figured out before ordering!

Ok thanks! And that was one of the reasons I am interested in his JLG, it just became hard to read through everything since it turned more into a thread about his protector and why to buy no others as well as him supporting people. His support is great from what I was reading. I just wanted to get the ball rolling on a thread that is about actually using the protectors and how they have worked out for people so far on all brands. I know zagg is something I will go no where near.

Actually just got an email from Scott "We actually got a real Note II and laser scanned it.
The new cut is shipping to you today.
Thanks for the help!
Scott"
So I cant be positive until I receive it but assuming it is the right fit I would very highly recommend it!

I went ahead and ordered one.

I got the zag invisible shield on today. It takes 24 hrs to dry. So I will let you know once it dries.

The invisishield hd is a no go for stylus users. My brother had one on his and the sketch he did with it is permanently on his screen protector now.

I'm using the Spigen Ultra Crystal and despite it not covering the screen entirely I love it. It's virtually unnoticeable other than the fingerprints that it collects, which is something you'll see with all screen protectors(I had issues even on my oleophobic that I had on my GS2). The stylus works just as well as it did before I put the protector on it and there are zero marks on it from the stylus since I've been using it(5 days)

I'm using a Spigen Ultra Oleophobic and, in retrospect, I wish I'd left my Ultra Crystal on. The Ultra Crystal was all but invisible aside from the fingerprints that wipe off cleanly, whereas fingerprints on the Ultra Oleophobic leave behind a film that makes the fact that you're using a screen protector painfully obvious. All things considered, I should have stayed with the Ultra Crystal, and it's only my desire to not give up on a $7.50 screen protector ten days after getting the phone (as I did with my Ultra Crystal) keeps the Ultra Oleo on there.
That being said, I use my S Pen regularly, and neither Spigen protector ever showed signs of wear or marking from the S Pen. I did have an Xtreme Guard screen protector on there for a few days after getting the phone, and it was badly marked up by the S Pen. My theory is that wet-apply protectors are just a bad idea with the Note 2, as gooey plastic (which is basically what they are) is prone to being scratched up and dragged around by pointy objects.

I use the same material used on cars for their clear bras. S pen works fine, and it's very tough. I use it on my iPad 3 as well. Never buying screen protectors again. Lol

No marks have been left on it with my s pen. It is not as smooth as writing on the screen though. I am happy.

This is completely bogus. I had two zaggs on my Note 2, one replaced by Best Buy because the S-Pen marks were so profound, the second removed because it happened to the improved Zagg... Even with the second being a Zagg HD, I was 100% let down by this product. I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy.
The SGP Ultra Crystal is, by far, the best available, as far as the S-Pen goes. It's just too hard for it to even think about leaving marks. That being said, I am eagerly awaiting my new re-cut just like glass to see if it's all that it's cracked up to be. If not, I will be certain to let you know... and subsequently go back to a SGP Ultra.

Has anyone noticed any delay/lessened sensitivity issues with either the SGP or JLG screen protectors? It's awesome that the note 2 has 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity (I'm assuming it's built into the spen), but I wouldn't want a screen protector getting in the way of that.

Spigen ultra clear here works fine

I wouldn't do that...you WILL get marks on it...I can almost guarantee it. I too had the Zagg HD and after a few days use, there were s pen marks all over it. Initially it seemed like a great protector...actually, without the s pen it would be. However, if you look at your screen with it turned off you can see marks all over it. Go with xtremeguard, Just Like Glass or Spigen...any one of those will hold up better and they are all quite a bit less expensive.

I don't much care how the screen looks while off.
I don't really use the pen much either, just don't want that rubbery feel (OG Zagg) when I do.
As far as price, I don't really care as long as I get what I want. Also, working at Best Buy has its advantages

Ismooth is so Disappointing! Doesnt even cover the whole screen!

I am really hoping I received a defective batch! I see the ISMOOTH has some good reviews and I have no idea why? I even went back to the box and made sure my ismooth was made for the note 2 cause I thought it was an error and meant for the note 1. Attached are some pics. As you can see it does not come close to edge to edge coverage. Or top to bottom for that matter...

There supposed to be like that cause of the curved screen on the note.

It looks like ir protects the screen just not the entire front. The reason its uneven on home button is from lookin at the 2 pics that shiw it on each side of screen. The protector was applied uneven. Its to far to the left

You're joking, right? Only a very select few screen protectors cover to the edge of the Note II. This is because of the curved glass on the Note II; the edges of the screen protector would never adhere to the curved part, and you'd be replacing them in a matter of days because they'd peeled up.
Please read at the least pinned screen protector review thread, which mentions this several times, before slamming a screen protector with a ridiculous complaint based upon your not reading.
*Edit: And based upon your asymmetric installation.

I am not joking at all! My ismooth is nothing like the one in the installation video. Mine did not have the greenish cover to make sure it alligns properly. Yes, my ismooth is installed a little to the left but that still doesnt come near the left edge. I am coming from a tech armor which covers the whole screen

The ones with the greenish cover are the bad ones. You want the newer ones with no green cover.

Then why post if you deny the replies. The curved glad part will make your screen protector peel if it stretches across the whole glass. Not to mention if you use a case those will peel it off if you use a good case.

And those are all non traditional (peel and stick) installs. Plus, the s-pen literally annihilates those. I got a Zagg HD when I got this phone. It was so marred in 3 weeks that the Zagg kiosk that I bought it from let me flat out return it!
Sure, these don't go to the edge of the screen.If you want one that does, search for the Voyager 2 by xgear. After shipping its around $40 but it looks awesome. I have a Chinese knockoff that works great too, but the black has glitter which is very annoying so it is not on my phone right now.
Out of dry, traditional installs, iSmooth is the best bang for your buck. Quality of SGP ultra crystal (or at least the next best thing to it), the rainbow effect isn't too bad on it since its a horizontal rainbow throughout, and it has a lifetime warranty even if you screw up the install.

Screen protector made for cases?

Hi, I've tried a few screen protectors now, but every time I put on my case it peels back the protector bc it's too close to the edges of the phone.
Does anyone know of any screen protectors that are meant for the G2 with a normal case on?

What kind of screen protectors have you used and what kind of case do you have?
Generally it shouldn't be much of a problem for the LG G2 since the screen protectors are usually cut "too small" due to the curved glass near the edges.

Don't have a link because I'm too lazy to find it but honestly, it should be the same no matter which protector you buy. At this point I don't know of any brand that makes a protector for the G2 that goes to the edges of the screen.

They make one that is cut smaller to accommodate cases. I like that it is wet application too. Easier to slide around and get the placement perfect than dry application types.

Interesting... I might try it after I use up my current screen protectors.
This is the screen protector I got.
I definitely don't recommend the anti-glare screen protectors though since they appear to pixelate your screen. Bought an anti-glare screen protector at the same time from Fosmon and it was the same as well.

Evecase Screen Protector Variety Pack with 2x Clear and 2x Anti-Glare Matte Film for LG G2 amazon

Get the Skinomi TechSkin, edge-toedge, wet apply and its great, i have it with the full body carbon fiber skin also.

Obliq Pure Crystal + Diztronic TPU case, very tight tolerances. Took me three times to get it put down right, each time was just a hair off, but enough that squeezing the case on the side popped up the edge of the protector.
Even my third try wasn't perfect, it was still popping up a little in one place, but this morning it has gone away. I'll keep an eye on it, I figured I was going to be trying it once more today.
Otherwise, it was an easy placement, looked even on sides, just a hair off. But that's all it takes

On my Galaxy Nexus, was told by Ghost Amour to just trim the edges a bit and that solved the case problem for me. I think you could use any protector if you did this.

On my Galaxy Nexus, was told by Ghost Amour to just trim the edges a bit and that solved the case problem for me. I think you could use any protector if you did this.

Are the Evecase Screens case friendly?

yes just make sure you make them close to center perfect as possible; I'm using the matte ones; they give you two matte and two clear; dont matter what brand; I even spent $13 on the SPG clear HD one; and it still feels sticky like a zagg ; IMO matte is the only way to go; but there is a Lil pixelation; cause of the matte; but its a fare trade off;
p.s. dont forget to place screen protector about about 1mm below the VZW logo ; like the top edge of the protector should be at the i of the Verizon logo

I use my wife's small paper cutter she uses for scrap booking, because I am terrible with scissors. I skipped a grade in school at an early age when they taught how to use scissors, and never really learned to do it correctly! lol!!

I go jogging with a few in each pocket, one in my left hand. I hear that's the safest way to transport them about.

Best choice for film screen protector

Now that my S7 Edge has shipped I'm in a rush to get a case and screen protector. I've never had an Edge device before and it seems like most people hate film type protectors, but that's all that's really out right now. What's the best one to get until something better comes along?

Hands down its the SuperShieldz one. I've tried Skinomi, Ilumeshield, and Spigen but they can't compare to the SuperShieldz. People have been asking me for pictures so I'll post them up this afternoon when I get home fromnrh gym. I did a quick review on Amazon which I'll link below, but it's great! I bought another set as a backup for later just in case.

Subscribed to the thread as I'm also looking for a good screen protector, seing as Spigen doesn't offer a full coverage one yet.

Fitment doesn't look that great in your pictures, what's with the 1/8" gap at the bottom corners? Or is that a common issue with these edge devices?
I found this one with good reviews but it looks like they're mostly from tablets.

You have to remember how they need to cut these in order to have them wrap correctly. It's not possible to have one that will cover anything without some compromises. I did take more pictures which I need to upload (I'll post them shortly). The screen protector does cover 99% of the screen unlike my Spigen which only covered ~70-80%

Fair enough. Maybe I'll buy these and the ones I linked to since they're both cheap and see which is better.

Great, no one has anything in stock and my phone is going to be here in a couple days. Not even the case I want is in stock, have to get two so one comes in time.

I'm glad I bought a bunch of different ones when I did because no they're flying off the shelves. My 2nd order of the SuperShieldz that I bought as a backup won't ship until today despite ordering it last week.

Yea, and imagine living in Canada, where shipping is expensive/long from the US and there's very limited choices in Canada ?

I should have ordered last week. Figured I'd have more time with Verizon lagging behind on the pre-orders.
I just ordered some XtremeGuard screen protectors because of the huge sale, no clue when they'll get here. There's nothing on Amazon with Prime that I can order, guess I'll have to keep the plastic on it that it comes with until I get the protectors.

You can ignore my slightly misaligned install. I was in a hurry (which is usually a bad idea when installing screen protectors), so it would be perfect if I installed my second one that came in the pack.
Here are some pictures:

Whatever yall do don't buy this crap.

I bought it from tmobile store cause it was all they had but it gets bubbles at top no matter what due to the installation process. Waste of $25 and neither tmo or the maker would give me refund

Can you use a case with the screen proctector? Does it go all the way to the edge?
Looks better than the Spigen!

Well considering I'm using my Tech 21 case in that picture yes you can. I've tested it with all of my cases (see my OP in this forum) it works fine. You do have to be care with some cases and lift their 'lip' so it sits on top of the protector when inserting your phone so it won't pull it up, but once you do that there are 0 issues. That's the +/- of having a E2E screen protector for the top/bottom and sides. I'll post more of my case reviews this evening so you can see how it fits in my 7-8 cases

All,
I got the supershieldz as well. Here are a few of my observations. The film has two protective coats that have to be removed. One is the sticky side that gets applied to the screen. The second is a pin film that is on the touch side. This one was a pain to remove. To get a good fit. I removed the side and place it on the phone then took the stick tabs and aligned the bottom and top to the phone. once it was aligned I worked from a corner to pull off the pink film. its a royal pain. the paper tab comes off at times but I made it work. Once the pink film is removed I used a card to smooth out the film or any bubbles. This film is very thin and feels sticky at first but this will go away after a few minutes of use. The film will mark up easily if you have long nails. Also, it does tend to bunch up if you put on a case. This was the case with the otterbox commuter, spigen tough, vrs case and UAG. But I was able to adjust them easily. The good news is that I have been using the phone for over a week now and no lifting. I had the s6 and used spigen and finally gave up. But this one is working well.

I agree, the install is a huge PITA, but the end result is well worth it. As I mentioned cases do work you just have to ensure their lip doesn't bunch it up when putting the phone in. If you read the directions you would've seen where it said gently press out the big bubbles with the included card wrapped in a microfiber cloth. I did this and didn't have any issues getting it to install correctly despite my slight misalignment.

Thanks for the tips guys, planning on getting a screen protector as well as the UAG case, it seems like they are due to ship mid-march.

I can confirm this. I bought this from tmobile a few days ago. I have bubbles at the top and the sides are already peeling up around the curved edges.
